This medium armoured infantry vehicle, about 16,000 of which were built from 1938 onwards, was mainly used in the Second World War by the German mechanized infantry as a combat vehicle and as a personnel carrier. The Sd. Kfz. 251/9 type C was equipped with an MG 42 and a 7.5 cm KwK 37 L/24 short barrelled cannon. 138 individual components give an authentic and finely detailed representation of this 5.8 m long vehicle with a speed of 50 km/h. The easy-to-assemble built up running gear is complete with an injection moulded track. In addition to the on-board tool kit the short-barrelled cannon is authentically reproduced in filigree form. The interior of the vehicle matches the gun.
